FlaFly 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 Couldn't get those black ones on the bottom row to open, but those shrimp are ausgezeichnet! Good enough to dip in cocktail sauce. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlaFly 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 blam... I see you joined us in Nov 12, but only posted 17 times so the forum designates you as a beginner. Let me tell you, you sure ain't no beginner! If you were a beginner back in 12, you sure have put your time since then to good use. Where do you plan to use those things? Crabs are what lots of Florida tyers use.

blaminack 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 I have been more of a lurker. Haha. I post a lot on Instagram and Facebook. I used to tie a bit in the 90s but I did pick it back up around 2012. I live in Panama City, and I am the current President of the Bay Fly Fishers club here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ditz2 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2015 Nice stuff there Nackie........I may get some weird comments here in the Salt Water forum. There are some weird "boys" here abouts. Of course I am one of the normal ones.....You should already know some of our contributors here that live in your area.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlaFly 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2015 Seems like shrimp and crabs are more appropriate here than in any other location, but they might get more attention in the Fly Tying Bench since pretty much everybody goes there, and lots of folks don't even bother opening this one. And they're still really great ties! And I still can't get the black ones (appear to be duplicates) to open. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Permitcapt 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2015 Shrimp is beautiful! How does it act in the water. Looks like it might turn upside-down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blaminack 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2015 The shrimp that are hook up ride that way. They are keel weighted and the "wing" and tail create resistance as it sinks flipping it upright. The hook down one... well is intended to ride hook down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
